010; 011; 016; 017; 024 | "The Northern or Grampian district of this parish is bounded on the North and North-east by the parish of Cortachy & Clova; on the South by the parish of Kingoldrum; and on the South-west by the parishes of Lintrathen & Glenisla. The whole district is hilly and mountainous, commencing on the south with Catlaw, the frontier mountain of the Grampians & the highest ground in the parish, stretching away North-westward in two screens or series of heights, whose inner sides form the basin of the Prosen. Every part of the frontier or boundary of the district, except a small gorge through which the Prosen makes its exit, consists of a water-shedding ridge of summits dividing the interior from the basin of the South Esk. The hills of the district in a few instances, rocky, & in a few verdant, except at their summits: but they are in general clothed in heath &c. Excepting about 2000 acres, partly arable & partly fine pasture the whole area is wildly pastoral or altogether waste." "Fullarton's Gazetteer". [continued on page 2] |
